A helping hand for older people in South Devon
Springtime may be a good time to look at the extra help that you need with jobs around the home.
Friends Helping at Home offers a range of support that enables people to remain living in the comfort of their own home.
At-home care and help with household tasks
We can help with everything that you need to remain living in the comfort of your own home, from providing occasional hours each week for tasks such as cleaning, gardening, general tidying and routine household maintenance, to care, whether a daily visit of live in-care.
Karen Breyley, Torbay Branch Manager says, “quite often at this time of year new customers come to us for extra help, sometimes, the occasional hour with help with cutting the grass, or help around the home, or help may be needed to find the right care upon returning from hospital or with respite. We are able to adapt and help as customers’ requirements change overtime, in particular, following illness or a hospital visit”.

Saving you money
We keep our costs and overheads low so that our charges are highly competitive.
We believe that you do get what you pay for, however, our system and way of working enables care professionals and support workers to earn a decent income, so we’re fussy about those who register with us.
We can also help with form filling and help you obtain the funding that you may be entitled to, for example, help completed the “attendance allowance” paperwork.
